Current Employee – been working at Liz Claiborne
Pros – Great connections to various areas of the fashion world. There are many small divisions within the company where people can network and learn more about all fields. There are really supportive programs that allow employees to give back to the community and a library of information to continue learning.
Cons – Productivity is hard to accomplish without the right tools. The computer programs used are extremely out of date, and wastes so much time and money. Instead of pushing people to work harder, LC needs to recognize those who have and reward them!
Advice to Senior Management – Make more investments in technology, promote better communication within divisions.

Current Employee – been working at Liz Claiborne
Pros – The best thing about working for Lucky Brand is the discount, the employee gets 60% off anything bought themself and 40% something bought as a gift for someone else. If you are an associate working very part time Lucky Brand can be a fun and laid back place to work but don't try to get promoted and certainly don't have the desire to know what is going on in management, you will be disappointed and learn to hate the company
Cons – Disresepect to all employees, the pay is not competetive, the upper management is not profesional, constant accusation of things you didnt do so they can try to admitt to something you did do even if you didn't do anything. they would rather hire outsaide the company then promote with in. Constant change in policy and proceedure, they have a low budget so they are constantly cutting hours of employees even if the employee is full time. I would not recomend this company to ANYONE!!!!
Advice to Senior Management – Treat your employees with respect and reward hard work. If you paid competetively you would have good employees who care and your profit will go and turn over will go down!
